How do I take off the rear brake fluid cap?

How do you guys manage to take off the cap? Do I seriously have to unscrew the reservoir from the frame?
Why not? Just a little extra effort to avoid spills and scratches. Keep that stuff from dripping on your paint. That's what the wrist-warmers on the front brake reservoirs are for on race/sportbikes. They keep the brake fluid from weeping out into the slipstream and then damaging the paint.

Nice to see you guys keeping these things going; the last of the air-cooled inline fours.
